As A Nigerian, Does English Surname Affect Japa Chances? by blockgeek69(m): 10:49am On Nov 10, 2022
I have a cousin that said she couldn't adopt her fathers English surname because the scholarship she applied for requested that she bears a native name as surname.

Now my question is, if I adopt an English surname (say "Mark" which is direct fathers name). As a guy from one of the 3 indigenous regions in Nigeria, will that affect my chances of applying for international scholarship or will that affect my japa plans via s study route?

Mark is not even an English name to begin with. This assertion is nothing but beer parlor talks. Nothing like this exists.
